and consequently incurablc. It is impossible to de-
scribe her snfferings. Her body from the crown Of
her head to the socs Of her feet was a mass of decay,
masses OF flesh rotting of AID leaving great cavities.
Her fingers festered and three or four nails dropped
off at one time. Her limbs contracted by the fearful
ulccration, and for several years she did not leave
her bed. Her weight was reduced from 15 to 60 lbs.
Perhaps come faint idea OF her condition can be
cleaned from the fact that three pounds Of Cosmo-
line OF ointment were used per week IN dressing her
sores. Finally the physicians acknowledged their
defeat by this Black Wolf, and commended the suf-
ferer to her all-wise Creator.
Her husband. hearing wonderful reports Of the ueG

try 1t as a last reaort. She began its use under pro-

A Thrilling Adventure.
LAWYERS MIRACULOUS ESCAPE FROM DEATH WHILE

EXPLORING CAVE.
dispatch from Raleigh, n. c., says: Mai. WV
Fleming, prominent lawyer, has had a most ex.
citing adventure In Mcdowell County. Some
months ago an opening was discovered In the side
OF mountain, which rises like wall by the side
of deep gorge known as Turkey Cove. The dis
cOverers aver that the rocks which must have
formerly concealed the entrance had been thrown
down or displaced by the earthquake OF August
1856, and they were not disposed 10 venture far
into the opening. For some years the belief has
extended that In these North Carolina mountains
the highest east OF he Rockies there are Vast cav
ems in the limestone. Major Fleming is the first
to prove this surmioe TO be true.
Last week he made a special visit to the cavern
Entering IL through rather contracted opening
he soon found himself in large hallway, which
came upon a very LOFTY chamber dome shaped
Beyond this he heard a roaring, rushing noise
and, making his way In It's direction, found that
1t was caused by swiftly flowing stream, which,
crossing the passage diagOnally, fell few feet
further into an abyss. This point Is several hum
the depression through which the stream flows are
OF the color and very greatly resemble light brown
sugar There are some fine stalactltes here and
there. The cavern extends beyond the stream, as
Major Fleming could plainly see, but he was un-
able TO cross the rushing torrent. IL was unfor.
tunate that he was unable TO do so. A sudden
blast OF cold air from an unseen Ortf1ce eXtin-
guished his light and LETT him in the very black.
ness OF darkness. His situation was dreadful and
me ne almost gave way to despair Every noise In
thousand fold. He plucked up courage, however,
and made an earnest attempt at escape.
IL was three or four hours before ne found the
entrance, and then by mere accident, thus escap-
ing horrible DEATH popularity about the
passage-ways OF the cavern is that man can
walk erect In them, anu that in great part their
floors, like those OF the main chambers, are free
from any distractions, as rule. Mr.. r. 8. Nc.
1t is in o formation OF pure limestone. and runs
along the general trend OF the range OF the Blue
Ridge II Is Major Femlng's BELIEF that 1t is miles

Senator Beck on the Tariff.
HE THINKS THE REDUCTION SHOULD AGGREGA ATT
ONE HUNDRED MILLIONS,

Senator Beck is in Louisville, KY, preparatory to
attending the opening OF the legislature which
will re-elect him. A New York World special says
he Was seen by reporter yesterday, and when
asked about the probable action OF Congress In re-
gard to the tariff replied
"There will certainly be changes to reduce the
heavy revenues now constantly adding to the sur
plus. think the tobacco tax Will be entirely re-
moved and probably a provision made that the
tax on whisky shall be collected when 1t is with
drawn for consumption. Iregard it as practically
certain that the tobacco tax will be removed. The
measure must originate in The House. can't tell
what Randall will do. The House democrats as
yet have had no conference with the Senators on
the subject. don't think any thing can b. deter
mined I'LL the ways and means committee is m de
up, Tor or course the men at the head OF that COM
mlttee will have charge OF the tariff measure. Our
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Kenna, Hearst, and
JoncS-are ready for a conference. think there
Will be reduction In the tar1ff schedule cutting
of sixty to seventy and perhaps hundred mil
lions or revenue. IL ought TO be the latter figure.
think the reduction Will be on iron wool, sugar,
LUMBER, and various other articles. Tariff on some
things viii be greatly reduced and others will be
placed upon the free liS."
